Story

My name is Mariam, and I’m reaching out for help in what has been the most challenging chapter of my life. As an international student, I left everything behind—my home, my family, and my friends—to pursue a better future. I came abroad with high hopes, but I’m now struggling with financial hardship that has made it nearly impossible to continue my studies and cover basic living expenses.

I’m currently facing the painful reality of overdue tuition fees, mounting rent, and everyday costs that have spiraled out of my control. I work part-time, but it barely makes a dent in what I need to survive and stay in school. Without immediate support, I’m at risk of losing everything I’ve worked so hard for.

I’m not asking for the world, but just enough to keep me afloat—enough to pay my school fees, settle my rent, and cover basic living expenses like food and transportation. Every little bit helps, and no donation is too small. Your kindness could be the lifeline I need to complete my education and build a better future for myself and my family.

Thank you for taking the time to read this. If you’re in a position to help, I’ll be forever grateful.
